FireFox优化

我一般经常用FireFox，偶尔用一下IE， 那是因为有的网站在FireFox下面显示的很乱。或者就像现在的情况，我在优快云上发文章，FireFox的文章编辑控件不能显示出来，郁闷，只好拿到IE下来写了。

FireFox打开多个网页，就会变的很慢，CPU占用也很高。我上优快云，一般就是先打开首页，然后开始浏览，看到感兴趣的文章，就在一个新的标签栏打开，这样下来，要打开10几个标签栏。

于是Google了一下，发现了一个比较可行的办法。

首先在浏览器地址栏里输入“about:config”，等系统调用完毕之后按照下列步骤：

更改　"network.http.pipelining"　为　ture
更改　"network.http.proxy.pipelining" ture
更改　"network.http.pipelining.maxrequests"为30

下面是英文

Type "about:config" in your FireFox address bar. The settings you're looking for are:

1.) network.http.pipelining
2.) network.http.pipelining.firstrequest
3.) network.http.pipelining.maxrequests
4.) network.http.proxy.pipelining
5.) nglayout.ititialpaint.delay

Set #1, #2, and #4 to "true". Set #3 to a high number, like 32. Set #5 to 0.

Enabling the pipelining features allows the browser to make multiple requests to the server at the same time. The "maxrequests" is the maximum number of requests it will send at once. I've heard that 8 is the most it will send at once, but setting it higher won't hurt, just in case. The initialpaint.delay is the length of time (in milliseconds) after the server response before the browser begins to paint the page.

If you want to enjoy some other features of Opera, such as turning off referrer logging, here is how to do that.

In the about:config settings, find the line: "network.http.sendRefererheader"

Double-click it and set the value to 0. This will turn off referrer logging. This may have some detrimental effects on webmasters that are trying to track their traffic.

I did a forum search to be sure this hasnt been posted......But even with broadband , I notice that Firefox kinda lags between pages. Being a new user of Ubuntu linux, I found a tweak on their site for disabling IPv6 in Firefox, because most if not all of the web is still using IPv4, and it works in Windows version of Firefox too.

Open Firefox..type about:config

look for: Network.dns.disableIPv6
